Abstract: This paper aims to analyse the ‘equipment’ of the interior spaces of Le Corbusier’s apartment (1933), i.e. the process by which the new interior decoration was transformed after the flat’s completion. Renovations were intermittently repeated in response to the unpredictable external factors of wife and climate, while Le Corbusier carefully tried to order the new ‘equipment’. It is almost reduced to the question of primitive art in living spaces. In other words, Le Corbusier tried to spread ‘art’ (as equipment) as ‘vitality of life’ throughout the living space.
